Chapter 427 Princess Zhao

What appears to be an ambiguous scene of love-making actually hides murderous intent.

Once successfully possessed by the banshee, Gao Fei's body will be forcibly taken over by her and turned into a puppet controlled by the banshee.

Fortunately, Wang Daqing's "Protection from Evil" blessing for him blocked the banshee and prevented her from possessing him and seizing his body.

Realizing that she couldn't penetrate Goofy's body, the banshee became angry, stretched out her sharp claws, and scratched his chest hard!

The ectoplasmic anti-riot suit cannot stop the banshee's "eclipse touch".

However, it was not in vain that Gao Fei had received so many protective buffs in advance. He was scratched by the banshee, but other than the cold swoosh on his body, it was nothing serious.

Gao Fei pulled out the "Thunder King's Fang" from the storage space of the astrolabe, waved the giant scythe with all his strength, and slashed at the banshee!

The howling wind was mixed with lightning, thunder and holy light!

This sword cut off the opposite shadow in half, causing 12 points of slashing damage, 6 points of electric shock damage, plus 11 points of radiant damage from the "Holy Slash"!

It actually hit!

Gao Fei is pleased with his luck.

In fact, the rapier is more suitable to be paired with the "Mask of the Warlock", and you can get the benefits provided by the "Contract Weapon" - the damage is not as good as the "Thunder King's Fang", but the hit rate is more guaranteed.

Unfortunately, Goofy's rapier is only a fine product, not a magical weapon, and cannot kill incorporeal souls.

The banshee had been hit hard continuously, and her HP had dropped to single digits.

At this moment when the oil was running out, she finally remembered her most powerful killing move and let out a howl calling for death.

The cry of extreme grief and anger echoed in the dark tomb.

The cry was like an invisible awl, piercing Gao Fei's heart deeply.

"Standing" saves him from instant death, which is equivalent to a walk-through save.

Despite this, it still takes 12 points of psychic damage.

The feeling of heartbreak...it really hurts!

Fortunately, Gao Fei's vitality is strong enough, and some injuries are not fatal.

The banshee howled only once a day, and had no other tricks to play with.

Gao Fei calmly raised his hand, his palm almost touching the grief-stricken face of the banshee, and blasted out a "magic blast".

Bang!

In the tomb, the roar of energy continued for a long time.

The banshee, whose head was penetrated by the shock wave, exhausted her last bit of life force, and her suspended body slowly dissipated.

Gao Fei lowered his arms, his face still solemn.

On the surface, it seemed that he had successfully killed the banshee.

But he knew in his heart that the Banshee had not yet been completely destroyed.

Her resentful spirit that has held hatred for thousands of years has returned to the coffin, absorbing the rich Yin energy in the tomb. After a period of nourishment, she will transform into a banshee again.

Gao Fei walked out of the tomb and told his companions truthfully:

"Unless someone helps the banshee in the coffin fulfill her dying wish, she can find eternal rest."

Noticing that everyone's expressions had changed, Gao Fei comforted him again: "The banshee has just been destroyed, and it shouldn't be possible to climb out of the coffin for a while. Let's hurry up before we have time to leave this ghost place."

With an anxious mood, Gao Fei led his companions into the tomb where the banshee rested.

Five people and one cat split up to search. Wu Xiaoqian, who had the highest perception attribute, was the first to discover a secret door.

Gao Fei checked the secret door and found that the built-in crossbow mechanism had been destroyed and replaced by a landmine. It was probably Hong Debiao who had moved his hands and feet, so he put on a "thief mask", removed the mine, and pried open the secret door.

At the same time, Gao Fei briefly explained the abnormal situation of the female corpse in the coffin, and asked Wu Xiaoqian why the female corpse's face was covered with a thick layer of cotton gauze, making it look as if she had no face to see the sky...

After hearing his description, Wu Xiaoqian frowned, bit her lip and thought for a while, then suddenly made a request that surprised Gao Fei.

"Xiao Gao, after you finish your work, can you help me pry open the coffin where the banshee is sleeping? I want to see her face with my own eyes."

"Sister Wu...you know that there is a banshee lying in the coffin, but you still dare to open the coffin and conduct an autopsy. No matter how brave you are, you don't have to do this, right?"

Gao Fei couldn't laugh or cry.

"Xiao Gao, I know this request is a bit excessive, but I'm really curious! If I don't see it with my own eyes, I won't be able to let it go, and I won't even be able to sleep!"

Wu Xiaoqian clasped her hands together, her face full of sincerity.

"Sister Wu, have you written too many ghost stories and become possessed?" Jiang Feng couldn't help complaining.

In fact, she wanted to say to Wu Xiaoqian: Your father was kidnapped by Madman Hong, and his life or death was uncertain. You were not in a hurry to save your father, but you took the time to open the coffin and conduct an autopsy. You are really a filial daughter!

However, these words were too hurtful to say, and Jiang Feng was still embarrassed to say them in the end.

Gao Fei stuffed the removed grenade into the astrolabe. Seeing the pleading in Wu Xiaoqian's eyes, he had to smile bitterly and agree to her ridiculous request.

Using the thieves' tools at hand and professional skills, it took Gao Fei less than ten seconds to pry open the coffin board and push it open with all his strength.

"Sister Wu, hurry up! We'll have to wait for you for an hour at most before we leave!" Gao Fei reminded.

During this period, he can also take a short rest to restore the number of uses of the "Magic Mask".

"Okay! It'll be done in less than an hour!"

Wu Xiaoqian had already put on her mask and gloves, and quickly came to the coffin. Like a skilled surgeon, she didn't care about the yin and rotten stench emanating from the coffin, and looked at the appearance of the female corpse.

She held tweezers in her left hand and scissors in her right hand, gently cutting open the layer of shroud covering the face of the female corpse.

Ma Tao watched from the side and couldn't help but mutter: "Does this count as destruction of cultural relics? If word spreads, Sister Wu will have a say."

Wu Xiaoqian pretended not to hear, and carefully lifted up the mask. As expected, there was a layer of yellowed cotton wool soaked in corpse oil stuffed underneath.

After peeling off the cotton wool, the true appearance of the female corpse was finally exposed to the public.

The facial muscles have long since shrunk, and a pair of empty eye sockets penetrate into the skull cavity, leaving only a layer of waxy skin close to the bones, like a dried skull specimen.

Gao Fei, Jiang Feng, Ma Tao and Wang Daqing only glanced at each other and then looked away at the same time.

Wu Xiaoqian didn't seem to mind. She opened the jaw of the female corpse and observed it carefully.

Huzi squatted on the coffin lid and stared at the female corpse with great interest. Suddenly his eyes lit up and he meowed at the female corpse.

Gao Fei was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hand to stroke the winged cat, and communicated spiritually with it. Then he said to Wu Xiaoqian with a strange expression:

"Sister Wu, Huzi just smelled the smell of poison."

Wu Xiaoqian was not surprised. She pointed at the open mouth of the female corpse and asked him: "Is it emanating from here?"

"That's right, and it's not corpse poison."

"Arsenic?" Wu Xiaoqian asked.

"...How do you know?" Gao Fei was shocked.

"Look at the teeth and throat of the corpse, there are white powdery objects remaining, which is the toxin that Huzi smelled." Wu Xiaoqian explained, "I suspected it was arsenic from the beginning, and Huzi helped me verify this guess."

"Sister Wu, does this mean that the female corpse in the coffin did not die of natural causes, but committed suicide by taking poison and was buried for the male owner of this ancient tomb? The loving couple did not want to be born in the same year, the same month and the same day, but only wanted to die in the same year, the same month and the same day?" Jiang Feng guessed. .
